Dashcam switched on by accelerometer

[MontanaProf]

Hi all,

Does anyone know if there is a Dashcam that is switched on by an accelerometer?

I don't want to have to remember to switch the device on, so having it be movement triggered would be awesome.

Thanks all!

Dash cams generally turn on when you start the car or some can use motion detection if hardwired (results vary depending on which cam)

This plus using an accelerometer could cause issues. What if you have to put your foot in it to trigger it.?
I've sat at red lights that are literately 10 mins long (even a sign is posted) what if this caused it to turn off?
What if steady highway driving turned it off?
What if it was off by chance an an accident caused it to turn on, but by the time it was warmed up and recording the accident could have been over for seconds already.
